Incipio Executive OVRMLD - iPhone 3G

epkade · 08-06-2007, 03:05 AM

Has anyone bought this case? I'm looking to buy this case or a "pocket pouch" type case with one of the "fully body" films like Body Guardz or Invisible Shield.

If you have any information on the Incipio Executive OVRMLD, could you please post a review and pictures?

I dont know abou that particular case but I recently ordered the Incipio SILICRYLIC case and its one of the worst I've tried so far. On the site it looks like its a molded rubber case, however its really just a thin piece of rubber that loosely fits around the phone and then has to be held in place by a huge plastic piece. Its definetly one of the more poor designs I have seen thus far.

Yeah, the design of the OVMLD is great. I love that it covers all 4 corners and still gives accessibility, but I do question its quality.

Great, can't wait!

I am looking forward to receiving it. FYI, iLounge has posted a review of this case, giving it a recommended B rating. They stated that the quality of it was greater than that of the others they have seen from incipio. Also, I contacted the company and the belt clip nub IS removable.

Anyone know if this case will fit into the Case-mate holster? I like that it provides more protection than the CM Signature and that the chrome is fully covered. Is there a gaping hole if the beltclip nub is removed? How well does the case stay together.

Looks like the inside of the case is bare plastic. I wonder if this will cause scratches like some of the acrylic cases? I like the design and the price of this case, but I'm hesitant to pick it up based on what I've read about the company and their products.

My OVRMLD came in today, and I am unsure if I will keep it. The stitching and overall build quality are not what they should be for a $30 case. However, the leather does feel nice in my hand, and the case seems to hold together well. I do like that the case is lined with a soft silicone like material.

Thanks for the pictures. It's interesting that there's a silicon liner. I don't think I'll get one, there will be the perfect case someday.

I purchased this case and like it quite a bit. It offers good protection and mine seems to be made quite well. As a side note, the previous poster who posted pics of this case and stated he was not impressed with the quality may have gotten an early version of the case...mine was held up for delivery because of last minute refinements. I happen to like swivle clips and this case has a pretty good one. I do have two small complaints regarding this clip and they are kind of related to each other. It has a ratcheting clip that is accomplished with an addition nub that holds it in position. I do not like this for two reasons, the phone ends up in wierd positions somtimes on my belt and the extra pressure an tension that the extra nub produced, causes the swivle clip post to come loose from the case. My phone actually fell off in the gracery store. I found an easy way to modify the clip however and reattached it and it is now better than ever. I would be happy to help talk anyone through modifying theirs in the same way.

Prior to this I had the CaseMate case and it was ok except that the "ears" at the top would always catche on stuff.

I also have a krussel case on order and it should come soon so I will be curious how that is, as krussel has always made good cases.
